The Differences

The differences that seemed so great
That made me think I had to wait
To find a place where I belong
I thought were real - but I was wrong

The differences to which we cling
Convinced that they mean everything
They occupy a lonely heart
That wants to join but stands apart

The differences that you perceive
Are only something you believe
But at the end of life’s long day
The differences all fall away

A mirror saw me peering in
Wondering who that might have been
An anxious child with a lonely heart
That wants to share but how to start?

The difference is as years flew by
I finally stopped my asking why
And let the world just simply be
And the difference it made to me
Set me free

The differences that seemed so great
That made me think I had to wait
Yes, they’re still here and yet somehow
They don’t seem important now
